The next bus is the next bus to come 🤷🏼♂️ But the answer to your question is enough to not know for sure what the other person means without clarifying. It happens especially when someone is talking about “next Thursday” on a Friday for example. Because that’s in next week.

For many, “next Thursday” is the next available Thursday, three days hence (if you’re reading this on a Monday)

Like Tumbleweedthey’re immutable so you can’t mess with the stuff they keeps it running which is why it just works.

2·4 days agoWell, Synology is a brand name NAS aimed at beginners with their own “OS”. Unless you were planning on dropping a decent chunk of change to buy one, it’s a moot point. But because it’s a popular option among people starting out, I was curious of that was your situation, in which case that link would walk you through everything you needed to know, including its quirks.
I replied to someone else in this thread on how to get started with Usenet if you’re interested. It boils down to two subscriptions and another container running with your arrs stack.

3·4 days agoYou need two subscriptions. One to an indexer (https://nzb.su/) which acts like a search engine, and two to a Usenet that hosts media (https://frugalusenet.com/). These two aren’t the only two options out there, but I’ve been using them for years. YMMV.
Once you have those subscriptions, you need to run sabnzbd in a docker container near your arrs, and point your arrs to the indexer as well as to sabnzbd. Tell Sonarr you want to find a show, it uses the indexer to see where it can be found, tells sabnzbd to acquire it using the servers you paid for in the Usenet group, downloads and pieces it back together and then files it where Sonarr tells it to. Jellyfin notices that media folder has something new, and you can watch it wherever.
For more interesting cat facts, be sure to smash that subscribe button.

2·4 days agoReason I asked about Synology was because there’s a good guide here for the arr deployment. I adapted it for my ugreen nas. Might be able to find parallels with whatever set up you’ve got going on.
Usenet is archaic, but therein lies the protection. It’s a straight download of disparate files that a program you run puts together. Safer than torrent, but your options may be more limited.

5·5 days agoWhat are you running? Does it happen to be some all in one solution like Synology or Ugreen?
But the gist of it is you get the arrs running in a docker stack, jellyfin running in another. You don’t actually have to point them at each other: the arrs dump your films/series into a media folder you define. You tell your jellyfin server what folder has your media and bob’s your uncle.
I prefer using Usenet to download my media. Pros, not torrent, less risk. Cons, costs a bit each year.

You’re trying to apply logic to English? You’re also assuming people actually think about what they’re saying or even know the so called rules of English. If that were the case we wouldn’t have people mixing up their/there/they’re or your/you’re its/it’s etc.
Fact of the matter, if everything you said were true, we wouldn’t have people wishing for a way to clarify and we wouldn’t be having this conversation.
